My beloved Arizona Wildcats (5-3) lost yesterday, 45-42. Here is the latest ranking. Utah was way overrated. Baylor is way, way overrated.

It's typical of any government to cover up or at least minimize its responsibility for a calamity such as Benghazi.
What isn't typical, and what should not be forgiven of Clinton and the Obama administration, is how cavalierly they threw freedom of speech under the bus when they blamed the attack on a notorious anti-Islamic video, while knowing full well that the attack was planned and, to their embarrassment, utterly predictable.

Two months before the 2015 season began, I predicted that the World Series teams would be the Kansas City Royals and the Chicago Cubs. The Royals are indeed in the World Series. The Cubs fell just short, losing the National League Championship Series to the New York Mets. I predict that the Royals will beat the Mets in six games.

Re “Benghazi Panel Engages Clinton in Tense Session” (front page, Oct. 23):
Kudos to the select House committee on Benghazi! The committee gave Hillary Rodham Clinton an unparalleled opportunity to present herself to the nation.
Faced with a panel of hostile interrogators, she displayed qualities essential to a successful president in these times: thorough command of the facts and the ability to remain composed and focused in the face of sustained, unrelenting attacks. These are qualities that the next American president must have in dealing with a fractious Congress, a hostile Russia, a bullying China and a chaotic Middle East.
Would that each of the other presidential aspirants also had to undergo 11 hours of such hostile interrogation rather than the comfortable superficiality of the debates.

Note from KBJ: The more people see and hear this harridan, the less likely they are to vote for her.
